Abstract: A process monitors and regulates a small-scale waste water treatment process in a sequential batch reactor or water retained by a lagoon dam, using depth measurements. The process is linked to the mechanical pre-treatment, buffer water holding, biological or sedimentary stages. In one or more of the treatment stages, the water depth is measured especially by a compressed air pressure sensor (19-22).  Also claimed is a commensurate assembly in which the values so obtained are fed to a computer (7) comparing the measured vales with a control program. The computer issues requisite correctional commands. The pressure measurements are obtained by mechanical and/or electronic devices. The assembly is fitted either as original equipment in a new installation or retro-fitted to an existing installation.

Abstract: Method for the detection of a pathogenic form of a prion protein in a sample,
comprising providing a container, pretreating the container to deposit on a
surface of the container a coating of a cellulose derivative capable of favoring the
binding of pathogenic prion protein to said container surface over the binding of
cellular prion protein, incubating the sample in said container to bind any
pathogenic prion protein present in the sample to said container surface,
labelling the thus immobilized pathogenic prion protein, if present, with an
appropriate labelling agent using an anti-prion antibody capable of binding to
pathogenic prion protein and detecting the presence of labelling agent attached
to the container surface. Coating a surface of a microtitre plate well with
nitrocellulose allows to perform an ELISA for quantification of pathogenic prions
in a suspected sample, especially after enzymatic digestion of the sample with an
enzyme like proteinase K, by enhancing binding of pathogenic prions and/or
reducing binding of cellular (non-pathogenic) prions.

Abstract: An automatic start-up for a continuous ink jet printer provides a
dyeless flush fluid to the printhead (28) to remove any particles or ink residue
from the printhead (28) and to wet the orifice plate before jets form. The
pressure of the flush fluid is then raised to cause the flush fluid to begin jetting
from the drop generator (34). Once jets are established, ink is supplied to the
drop generator (34) at the pressure of the jetting flush fluid. The flow of flush
fluid is stopped. Since the printhead (38) is being supplied with ink, ink
replaces the flush fluid as the fluid being jetted from the drop generator (34).
An ink heater (56) is then turned on, increasing evaporation of solvent from
the ink jetted from the drop generator (34). The solvent vapors condense on
the relatively cool charge plate and catcher (44) face. The condensate forming
on these surfaces provides one final rinse of these surfaces to remove
conductive ink from the charge leads and catcher (44) face. After a period of
condensate cleaning, the ink heater (56) is turned off, and a heater (58)
attached to the charge plate catcher assembly is turned on to dry the charge
plate and catcher (44). Charge voltage may then be turned on to deflect the ink
drops into catch. At this point, the printhead (38) is ready for printing.

Abstract: The invention relates to an atomisation nozzle in which the vortex chamber (7) is connected to the exterior by means of a conical convergent co-axial outlet hole (10) and communicates with the inlet by means of a number of oblique transfer channels (11, 15). Each first transfer channel (11) is defined by an external face (21) having a profile generally rectilinear which connects tangentially to the peripheral wall (8) of the vortex chamber (7), whilst the internal face (22) has a concave profile over the greater part of the length thereof. The distribution and fineness of the atomised particles exiting from the nozzle are thus improved, particularly when the liquid has a viscosity greater than that of water.

Abstract: A color management system for use with projection displays includes an image assimilator and an analyzer. The image assimilator comprises a panel that produces a light beam comprising spatial information. The image assimilator also comprises a field lens positioned to receive the light beam and configured to emit a converging light beam whose cross-sectional area decreases with distance from the field lens. In an exemplary embodiment, a plurality of image assimilators and associated analyzers are included, each having a field lens for emitting a converging light beam. The analyzers are configured for producing filtered light outputs with improved contrast relative to the converging light beams. In addition, the converging nature of the field lens emitted light beams enables the size of the analyzers and other downstream components to be minimized. Accordingly, this embodiment produces images having dramatically improved levels of contrast with reduced size relative to prior art systems.

Abstract: A plural-mode receiver 10 is able to receive signals from a first communication system (e.g. WCDMA) or signals from a second, different communication system e.g. GSM). The receiver 10 comprises a first receiver chain 13, 15,17,19 for receiving signals of the first communication system and a second receiver chain 12, 14, 16, 18 for receiving signals of the second communication system. A reference oscillator 24 is arranged to generate a reference signal for the first receiver chain and the second receiver chain. The receiver also comprises a controller 22 for controlling the reference oscillator 24 so that the oscillator 24 oscillates at frequencies related to signals of the first communication system or signals of the second communication system. The controller 22 records the change in frequency of the oscillator 24 resulting from changing to the frequencies related to signals of the second communication system and a period of time during which signals of the second communication system are received by the second receiver chain. The controller 22 then calculates from the recorded change and the recorded period of time an error vector and changes parameters of the reference oscillator 24, including applying the calculated error vector, so that the oscillator oscillates at frequencies related to signals of the first communication system.
